Picture of the Day - "Food Fight at the Cafeteria" - Sept. 1, 2016

Busy morning cleaning up a bunch of tree braches that I trimmed off the trees between my neighbour and myself. I can now mow under the trees without hanging myself or losing the mower under the branches. It makes seeing birds in the trees easier as well. :)
Thunderstorms this afternoon made for very dark lighting in the trees but we managed to get some good pictures. The birds were out in full force, except when it was down pouring. We had Grackles, Starlings, Blue Jays, Goldfinch and Purple Finches all over the place. I even saw a hummingbird for a few seconds. I caught this squabble just before a Jay landed and scared them all away for a few minutes.
